A good stay with some drawbacks. Generally quiet but some noise and smells of burnt food via locked interconnecting doors. Good responsive heating and hot water. There was no was washing up liquid or dish cloth inspite of good provision of kitchen for cooking meals. Some dishes were not clean There was a drain smell in the bathroom and the fan wasnt working. The stairs are very steep and not suitable for the very young or elderly but not mentioned in the details.

What a lovely apartment situated in the heart of Ilkley, check in was seamles, host very accommodating and responsive. Set back from the main road enables a peaceful retreat, but close to many restaurants, bars, shops and even the cinema! I found everything I needed in the home and kitchen for cooking meals, easy one floor layout, with bed tucked away in the back corner. The living space was laid out well and met all my needs. One thing to note is that the stairs to the loft apartment are fairly steep, not a problem for myself, but might be worth considering in the case of mobility isues. Amazing stay! Would easily stay again!! Thank you !!
